Fiorina Calls Trump And Clinton ‘Ultimate Insiders’

Carly Fiorina argued Wednesday night that Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, the leading contenders for the Republican and Democratic presidential nominations, are “indistinguishable,” according to The Hill.

The former Hewlett-Packard CEO, whom GOP candidate Ted Cruz has chosen as his vice-presidential running mate, told Megyn Kelly on Fox News: “On the one hand, you have Cruz and Fiorina, two proven conservatives, two proven fighters who actually know what this fight is about. On the other hand, you have Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, who are two sides of the same coin, who are the ultimate insiders, who have played this game all their lives.”

The Hill pointed out that Trump personally attacked Fiorina last year, while she was still running for president. The billionaire businessman asked during an interview: “Look at that face -- would anyone vote for that?" Fiorina told Kelly that Trump “has trouble with strong people who stand up to him, whether they are men or women.”

The would-be vice president continued: “Someone’s character is revealed in the pattern of their life. I, for example, think that when we had a terrorist attack in Brussels, and Donald Trump immediately pivoted to attacking Heidi Cruz, that reveals his character. And he cannot be our nominee.”
